The power steering motor fails at random and without warning, creating an imminent wreck hazard. At any time, the wheel will lose all power steering and simultaneously illuminate a red steering wheel warning on your dashboard. It takes significant force to turn the wheel once this happens. Secondly, when turning, a normal cars steering wheel will naturally "unwind" after a turn and smoothly straighten back up while driving. During this motor failure, the steering wheel remains stiffly stationary, pulling you into a potentially unwanted or dangerous direction (ditch, oncoming traffic, etc) unless you fight to straighten it.

At this time, the issue has not yet been reproduced or formally confirm

I'll put in today's date for the date that you're asking for but it happens all the time.
